Jesus, my Lord, how rich thy grace by Thomas Turton — Lyrics

Jesus, my Lord, how rich thy grace, how fair thy bounties shine! what can my poverty bestow, when all the worlds are thine? But thou hast needy brethren here, the partners of thy grace, and wilt confess their humble names before thy Father’s face.

About Jesus, my Lord, how rich thy grace

Thomas Turton's hymn setting Jesus, my Lord, how rich thy grace is a fine example of English sacred music. Scored for SATB choir, it is a thoughtful reflection on the Christian imperative to care for the poor, seeing in them the embodiment of Christ. The text emphasizes that acts of charity towards needy brethren are direct acts of service to Jesus himself. The composer sets these devotional words with a sincerity that allows the message to shine through, making this a suitable anthem for church services seeking to encourage generosity and compassion.
